Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

[MoCo_Vol]

Kiffin (hasn’t missed an opportunity to express how much he wants out of Oxford and how bad the fans are)
Freeze (if he hasn’t signed his new deal yet)
Mullen (does he really want to recruit at that level again)
Rhule (has absolutely no reason to coach but would tow the line for the boosters)
Dion ( can’t see this happening for anyone but FSU and by some accounts even that won’t happen)

Mullen won't come back to the SEC...he was set for life at Mississippi State, jumped to Florida I don't think he'd want another taste of SEC expectations and Auburn is showing with how they've handled that job that they are delusional with their expectations.

Still not sure if Sankey has an unspoken ban on Freeze or what, but his previous success in conference and the fact so many jobs have opened up and he wasn't a legit candidate is questionable.

Deion will play the long game, he's waiting on the P5 job -he- wants, not just waiting on a P5 job.

Rhule and Kiffin seems the most realistic of your list imo.

If Lane goes there Ole Miss and Bama fans are going to riot. I have a feeling even Lane thinks the admin and boosters are crazy there.

He would be right.

 

[MarcoVol]

Because it's Kentucky?

That's like saying that if you write another readable romance novel, you get to live another year in the woods with that chick from Misery.

Just saying he’s got it made. He might be able to win a game or two more per season in the B10, but he’s not winning anything notable with his style.

So he can stay, shoot for 7 wins, and keep getting paid millions of dollars

You know it's a good joke when a portion of people don't get it. Lane is gonna be a great fit at Auburn lol

 

[ACvol3]

We did have Akron and Ball State at night

Well.. those were more exhibitions than anything

The lying football mercenary thing is a great gig, if you can get it.

As is being born into wealth that now permits one to have persuasion in decisions over who a college hires/fires to coach a football team

 

[volinokc]

Uh oh, Heupel said Eye Discipline!

But Heupel means eye discipline whereas the other guy meant eye discipline, so we’re good.

In that example Hoke did him a huge favor. Transformed his attitude and the work he did to get reinstated transformed him into a beast player. Otherwise he doesn’t make it onto a NFL roster imo. Instead he’s a Vols legend. Don’t see the “huge mistake”.

Nothing about that situation transformed JJ. It delayed him a year is what it did, and he missed so much spring camp dealing with the BS to get reinstated.

JJ was always going to the NFL. Hell if Butch & co had gotten him 60 receptions he would have had 2 or 3 seasons like he did as a senior. Getting kicked off the team for wanting to play, was beyond stupid.

Can Saban and Prime still do the Aflac Commercials if Deion goes to Auburn?

List of Coaches Auburn Should Hire That Would Really Be a Bad Idea:
1) Deon Sanders

Also: Terry Bowden is still around somewhere. The suits want a politician and a butt kisser they can control.

Lane taking the Tubberville route right to the US Senate would be incredible.

Don’t know his politics…don’t care. But his level of petty snark would be great during Senate hearings.

Who is on the roster than can contribute immediately that is a good fit and better than what we have?

Tank?

Now there's something I hadn't thought about.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

61% of adults identify as having to breathe through their mouths. I have a severely deviated septum and almost exclusively have to breathe through my mouth.

Using "mouth breather" as an insult really doesn't move the needle for me, and I'm usually accused of being sensitive to stuff like that. I've never seen anyone actually be offended by it. It really means nothing. Its a very old phrase that describes the stupid look on someone's face when their mouths are casually hanging open. It doesn't actually mean people who breath through their mouths are dumb, and I'd like to encourage whoever truly is bothered by that phrase to think about that.

Easy there… snake boy

All coaches do!

Pruitt might disagree.

Can't be better than Herschel..."So dey was dis old bull...".

 

[wisvol22]

So UGA will most likely be without their leading pass rusher. Interior of the OL going to need to play well against Jalen Carter. I have plenty of faith they will and the OL overall will.

Agreed - him coming back for the Florida game is big for their defense, even though he was on a pitch count. Kirby said he should be full speed for us. Our hope here is that with our fast paced O, he won't have the game conditioning for it yet.

It seemed to really hurt him. Disagree strongly with your whole second paragraph. Hoke let’s him play against Vandy after sitting out the season with an injury and he’s not around another season…much less two. And he wasn’t predestined for the NFL. He WORKED for it. He was hit and miss previously and had a defective/entitled mentality. Going on a profanity laden SOCIAL MEDIA tirade screamed judgement issues. Didn’t see it again from him. Hyams reported he missed tons of class time in 2017 and you have to wonder HOW MUCH he “wanted to play.” Got no fond memories of Hoke but that was sound and eventful decision making. I don’t see how anybody could argue with the RESULTS.

There's more than enough of that already on both sides. Hell. It's all we have. No thanks.

Would make Donald look like a centrist.
